A world in turmoil desperation endless wars
forever on nuclear alert
where a continuously rising population
live on the edge of disaster
fed information the elite want us to hear
the truth never made clear!
Conflicts are perpetual few ever resolved
countless humans slaughtered
to keep the wealth for wars flowing in
no thought for the misery
or destruction of these nations generations
with endless peace delegations!
No limit on money spent for deadly weapons
yet to help the masses there is none
populations outgrowing all natural resources
animal species no longer exist
their land needed for profitable items to grow
most extinct the rest on death row!
Constant threats of world nuclear annihilation
as yet buttons not pressed
but so many nasty devices could do the job
maybe a pulse beam or microwaves
a complete computer shutdown or starvation
could equally bring our obliteration!
As we get through another day is our history
true or just fabrication
conspiracy theories could well contain truth
proving we are manipulated
th believe material gain is the only objective
the elite view us in a dark perspective!
Enjoy the moments of freedom and joy
before our leaders all of us destroy!

That sounds like a terrible world! No animals?! Starvation?!!
All because of greed?!
Is this really what the world’s coming to?
